Synopsis

Vagus nerve stimulation is the only FDA approved long term treatment option for chronic or recurrent depression. After twenty years of chronic depression, countless antidepressants, electroconvulsive therapy, the author was included as a study subject in the investigational trial of vagus nerve stimulation as a treatment for chronic depression. The treatment completely changed his life and inspired him to write Out of the Black Hole to help other patients who suffer from the grips of this agonizing disease. This all inclusive book prepares you to make an informed decision about the procedure by providing an easy-to-understand explanation about the ninety-minute out patient procedure, the side effects and benefits, insurance codes and the reimbursement process. Vagus nerve stimulation is not related to ECT or brain surgery and is more effective than traditional antidepressants drugs. Neurostimulation is the next frontier in the treatment of depression. If you or a loved one suffer from chronic or recurrent depression, this book will guide you through this remarkable, life-saving, life-altering procedure.

Title: Out of the Black Hole: The Patient's Guide to Vagus Nerve Stimulation and Depression by Charles E. Donovan, III

I am both the author and publisher of the above referenced book. The citations listed on the Amazon site, have nothing to do with my book:

Per Amazon:

"This book cites 3 books:

· THE BLACK HOLE (Disney's wonderful world of reading) by Disney Book Club on page 9

· Conflict of Interest by Terry Lewis in Back Matter

· The Black Hole by Alan Dean Foster in Back Matter"

My book is about a mental health/depression subject and does not cite the above books. These citations will confuse buyers. For instance, "The Black Hole"( Disney's wonderful world of reading) is totally inappropriate for this book.

Thank you for your help.
